Weekend Draw Treble: Sunday Spanish Stalemates – SCCG Management

While many bettors often focus on picking a winner, betting on a draw can be a clever and rewarding strategy.

This is because bookmakers generally offer better odds for draws, which happen less frequently than wins for either side.

With this in mind, let’s look at this weekend’s matches to identify where draws offer the best value.

Real Oviedo vs Athletic Club (Sunday, 13:00)

Bottom-placed Real Oviedo’s recent home matches have been close, with their last six La Liga games at home producing just three goals, five of which ended in draws (0-0, 0-0, 0-0, 0-0, 1-1 & 1-0).

Athletic Club won 4-2 against 19th-placed Levante at home last time but hadn’t won any of their previous six La Liga games before that.

Ernesto Valverde’s team has won only once away this season, and another close match in Northern Spain is anticipated on Sunday.

Stoke City vs Fulham (Sunday, 14:00)

Championship team Stoke City hosts Premier League side Fulham at the bet365 Stadium in the fourth round of the FA Cup on Sunday, and considering both teams’ form, an exciting match seems unlikely.

Stoke’s first nine matches in league and cup since the year began have averaged just 1.33 goals per game, with Mark Robins’s team winless in their last six, drawing three of them (W0-D3-L3).

Marco Silva’s side is also struggling, winning only one of their last five games, and a tight match that could go to extra time and possibly penalties is expected.

Rayo Vallecano vs Atletico Madrid (Sunday, 15:15)

Atletico Madrid’s title hopes have dwindled recently, with a goalless draw at Levante followed by their first home loss of the season, losing 0-1 to fifth-placed Real Betis.

Diego Simeone’s side has won just three times away in La Liga this season, drawing their last two and five of their last ten (W2-D5-L3), making another draw possible at Vallecas on Sunday.

Despite being in the relegation zone, Rayo has been hard to beat at home, losing only twice, but also winning just twice (W2-D6-L2), holding teams like Barcelona (1st), Real Madrid (2nd), and Real Betis (5th) to draws.
